Flashes during Scrying and migraines

Is there a way to turn off the bright flashes that happen during scrying?
On multiple occasions I have gotten migraines shortly after completing a series of scrying. I don't suffer from migraines regularly but there is just something about scrying that gives them to me.
It's gotten to the point where I just have to close my eyes when I start scrying and when I complete it... it's really frustrating (not to mention puts me in bed for the remainder of my day/night).

ZOS_IcymodGreetings,
This thread has been moved to the General Help section, as it is better suited there.
Thank you for your understanding.

NeuroticPixels✭✭✭✭✭COD recently added an accessibility-like feature that swaps out the sudden bright white that the screen does when a player is hit with a flashbang, with sudden blackness. It’s easier on the eyes, for sure.
Personally, I stick with the default look of flashbangs because that’s what I’ve grown accustomed to after all these years.
But I definitely agree that there’s no need for those flashes from scrying. Absolutely useless and does literally nothing for gameplay. I wish devs would be more mindful about bright, flashy things in their games.Check out the ReShade I made: Crispy Sharpness1 -
Photosniper89✭✭✭✭✭Maybe the devs can add something in the game to where we can disable this. Surely I'm not the only one who has IRL implications from that aggressive flashing.3

✭✭✭✭✭We've been asking for ways to disable all the bright white flashes of light for a very long time now. It's not unusual for different steps of some quests to flash in our faces without warning. These are painful and not necessary. If they do this to phase the area after killing a quest boss for example, they could have it fade to black instead like they do when placing the pieces of the map in Vvardenfell.PCNA0 -

True.
The one positive thing about it happening during scrying is that at least I know exactly when it will happen so I can close my eyes until I hear the sound and know it's okay to open them. Frustrating but.... it is what it is I guess. /sad0 -

✭Same here, I have to close my eyes every time the scrying table pops up.
I'd be happy if that flashes was somehow amended by ZOS in the next patch.
A moment of work for a skilled coder, but a much lesser burdens for thousands eyes.
